This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition No Brainer that HMG should seek UK’s best interest in terms of economic policies, balance of trade, supporting manufacturing & blue-chip industries
More details
As well as keeping immigration in control, not make agreements, not agreeing to treaties dictated to by other governments, not giving foreign aid that is not in UK’s best interests. These are the most important functions of government that will affect UK forever. UK should not ‘shoot herself in the foot’. Rights/contracts given away to another states (like EU), if not renewed/negotiated from time to time by a sovereign state may be taken for granted to be permanent by stealthy ‘prescription’ (a Land Law concept). Grants of rights under EU treaties give the impression that they are there for perpetuity. Under Land Law, the right of private way (easements) over another's land may arise from prescription by twenty years of continuous use of a land by implied easement. What rights is given away by a sovereign state should be able to be returned back to the state, unless it is by military conquest as in 1066 by William the Conquer.
